George Small returned after seeing my review and made things right. Tommy and his crew replaced my driveway and it is beautiful! Problem areas were addressed and George even had the crew move a drain that was affecting the driveway. Very happy! read more

We are very happy with our new driveway! FC Paving did amazing work and the final result was even better than the original plan. The owner, George is hands on and responsive and was very patient through our neighborhood approval process. I highly recommend them. read more

We wanted our asphalt driveway completely re-done, meaning the entire thing torn out and brand new underlayment and asphalt put in. From the time the owner of Falls Church Paving, George Small, picked up the phone until the time the job was done, I would have to give them 5 stars every step of the way. George is honest, straight forward, very fair and competitive with his pricing, and did exactly as he said he would, and even finished a couple of hours early. His crew consists of adamant professionals. They covered everything, did an outstanding job and cleaned up thoroughly after the job was done. I would strongly recommend them. read more

Called FCP looking for a repair estimate for root damage on my driveway. Jeff responded promptly and we discussed options in a low key, no pressure way. As the driveway surface was over 20 years old, I decided to completely resurface and got a good price from FCP which included removal of a tree and the offending root. The crew showed up on time and were very professional, you could tell this wasn't their first rodeo! The job was completed in short order, looks great and the crew cleaned the site completely. I've had 3 neighbors stop by already to comment how nice it looks and asking for George's and FCP's number. read more

Straightforward, real-deal pros who price your job fairly to be get your work, move on the job quickly but with careful attention and expertise, raise issues immediately and work with you to resolve them. FCP not only resurfaced my driveway but helped me understand what previous owners had done, improved the drainage, protected my trees, and added lighting and irrigation capabilities for later installations. read more

Falls Church Paving Company is by far the best in quality and professionalism. George and his crew exceeded my expectations. They went out of their way to do extra work to ensure my walkway and garage was protected. Each and every member of the team is courteous and experts at what they do. They each have pride in workmanship which showed through since they took their time to ensure everything was done perfectly. George kept his word from beginning to end. Nothing better than good ole American honesty. If they can do a perfect job on a 3400 sqft very long driveway, then they can certainly accomplish the same quality work on any size of driveway. I highly recommend this company for anyone looking to re-pave their driveway. read more

I had a great experience with Falls Church Paving. Our front porch was leaking water underneath the flagstone and it ended up causing issues with our basement. As the old porch was demolished, additional complexities were progressively revealed and ended up making the job more difficult than originally anticipated. George Small (the president) and his project lead (Samuel) kept us informed of the additional issues and gave us affordable options on how to move forward. George is the most responsive contractor I've ever had the pleasure to work with. He always took my phone calls or promptly called me back if I couldn't reach him. He was very easy to work with and his team showed up on time every day. After the job was finished and paid for, we discovered a minor issue and reported it to George. Even though the bill was already paid, George remained responsive and didn't hesitate to send his team out again to make sure we were satisfied with the work. I highly recommend Falls Church Paving if you want the job done correctly at an affordable price. read more

We were able to eventually round up four quotes over the course of six weeks. A lot of non-returned phone messages and less than professional no shows. Falls Church paving was the first quote we received. They only followed up once and were respectfully patient. When I contacted them a month later, the estimator made himself available to meet us. He showed up with the owner on time (early) and knocked on the door at the appropriate hour. The owner and the estimator were very polite, personable and professional. They showed up the day they said they would and finished on time as well. The crew was well trained and respectful as well. I cannot praise them enough. We did have perfect weather so that helped. Even if it had dragged out another day or so, the company was courteous and professional. More importantly, they did a great job. We got the product we paid for and then some. read more

UPDATE: After I posted my review (a summary is below) I was contacted by George. He made a significant effort to put things right. I'm very impressed by that - he stands behind his work and, while everything may not run perfectly smoothly, he does take the initiative to address issues. Given that, I'm raising my rating from 2 stars to 4 stars. SUMMARY OF ORIGINAL REVIEW: Their scheduling is haphazard at best. I had the job scheduled for Sat AM, but received a call from the owner (George) on Friday night who said the job had to be changed to Tues since other jobs were weather delayed. That was fine, but they just showed up on Sat afternoon anyway without any notice or call. During the removal a void was found where the driveway meets the garage. George wanted $1,000 additional to deal with it, stating that a lot of additional material would be needed. After I balked at that increase (which was a nearly 30% increase over the bid price) he lowered it to a $500 increase. Nothing was done to the driveway base - no additional gravel was placed even though the base that the builder put in 35 years ago didn't seem all that great. Due to that I have doubts the new driveway will last as long as it should given the lack of attention to the base. The rolling process was not done all that carefully, leaving some small but noticeable ridges and dips, especially near the end of the driveway. It won't interfere with use, but it will come into play when I have to shovel snow. After completing the job they left all their heavy equipment parked on the street from Sat until Monday morning. My neighbors were not happy with that, nor was I ever told that they would be leaving their equipment (which leaked oil over the street while sitting there for 1.5 days). read more

Falls Church Paving did a great job re-doing our driveway for us. We fielded quotes with many other businesses but Falls Church was both the friendliest and most cost effective! Jeff, George, and their team spent half an afternoon tearing out our old driveway and laying down new asphalt to our liking. They also widened our driveway as part of their work and gave great suggestions to maximize the curb appeal and usability of the driveway in our existing space. Now, our driveway has clean edges, no crumbling, and looks like a million bucks. Very pleased! read more

I made the mistake of signing a contract to pave over the existing driveway with someone that came up to my house saying he would give us a deal since he was doing other driveways in the neighborhood. After seeing their prep work, I knew that they weren't going to do a good job and called Falls Church Paving to get a quote and ask some questions. The owner, George Small, called me back and was great to talk to. He took the time to answer any questions I had about the process and I managed to get rid of the other guys. Then George came in and gave me a great price for removing the top layers driveway and putting down a new one that was much lower than the last guy would have charged for the same job. I could tell that George really cared about making sure our driveway was done well and it turned out great! read more

great paving job did MORE than expected Sux years later, job still looks great Note: be sure to only do sealing when no chance of rain for 24 hours read more

Recommended to us by a neighbor. I was very pleased with the work and responsiveness of Falls Church Paving. George, the owner, was a pleasure to work with and made sure the work was done right. In addition to the driveway, they helped fill a hole with concrete where an animal had been digging next to the driveway which caused the driveway to collapse. Before starting the work George even provided a cone to make sure everyone could be warned of the sink hole. Sharing the before and after photos. Very happy! read more

We had our driveway re-paved by Falls Church Paving. They were punctual, reliable, courteous and professional. Their work was exemplary and their price was highly competitive. In the course of the paving, the crew was called away for an emergency. Without any need on our part to inquire what happened and when they would return to finish the work, George Small (the owner) called us, apologized and assured us the job would be finished that night. George even brought the crew back several days later to add some touch up elements to match the landscaping because he wanted us to be very satisfied. George has a lot to be proud of about his company. He earns the highest recommendation. read more

Our driveway had been neglected for too long, and I called Falls Church Paving based on the recommendations of the neighbors on our immediate right and left, both who had used FCP for their own driveways. The day after we called, the owner himself, George Small came to write the estimate in person. My wife and I were impressed with his presentation, as well as the number of years that FCP had been in business. (I think he said they had just celebrated their 50th anniversary, as the company was started by his grandfather.) We knew the job would be expensive, as the entire old driveway needed to be demolished, regraded, and relayed with stone and asphalt. But George's bid was very competitive, and he sweetened the pot by agreeing to fill in and seal the eroded area under our garage and under our front stoop, level off the drive so that we could better use it to shoot hoops, and return in the fall with a free seal. His crew arrived the next day with all their heavy equipment, and the new driveway looked great. But the reason I gave FCP five stars was because of what happened afterwards. When the drive was set, we realized that the top of the driveway hadn't been leveled out at all for the basketball hoop. We called George, and he returned to look at it himself. He apologized and said he would return with the crew to make things right. I expected them to perhaps slap some more asphalt on the top and call it a day. Instead, they returned, dug it all up and repaved it from scratch. It took them a while and had to have cost George more than what we were charged. I am an eBay seller, and some of my best feedback comments have come from people whose orders I've made a mistake on. They were impressed by the way that I made things right after the error. George Small gave us his word that he would make things right, and he did in spades. Both my wife and I were impressed with the end result and with FCP's professionalism and the owner's attention to detail and customer service. The only thing they haven't yet done is the free seal, which won't be needed until the fall. But given what we've seen thus far, I have no reason to think that they won't make good on that, too, and I have no reservations about writing a wholehearted recommendation at this time. read more

Same problem as Laura O and Joe W--can't get them to return calls or online estimate requests no matter how hard I try. Pretty annoying since no other paving companies have reviews. However I just called Washington Paving (pavingdc.com) and they called me back promptly and said they would get me an estimate tomorrow. Will post review afterwards if I use them.... read more

As a further update, some additional problems occurred with some cracking and settling in the driveway. I was very impressed and happy that FC Paving came back and addressed all of the problems, repaved part of the driveway and sealed the whole thing again so that it would look good without charging me a dime. I'm very pleased with the customer service! read more

We recently worked with Falls Church Paving on a driveway paving project which required removing old asphalt, excavation, new asphalt, and an updated access reconfiguration. From the beginning, the owner George reached out and was involved. His right-hand man, Jeff, was professional and prompt with all communication and was instrumental in putting together our project. George was professional, very personable, and it was clear he knows his business as he offered creative solutions. The work was completed as agreed upon and on time. Of note, this is a family-owned business and it shows. The level of personal interaction and genuine regard for the work was evident immediately. George treated our entire family with respect, kindness, and thoughtfulness. We would not hesitate to recommend George and his company to others. If and when we have other asphalt related projects, he will be our first call. Thank you again, George. In a business where many try to upcharge just because, George was fair at all times. read more

Falls Church Paving gave me a great new driveway at great price. Big asphalt driveway, well done. Beyond my expectations. I would recommend them highly. read more

The team was very helpful and George was on top of every detail. They were thorough and followed up to make sure we were happy before they left. We will gladly recommend them to friends. Nice people and great work. read more

George's company has done private driveways from our previous home so we decided to go with his company to extend our driveway. The work done was in January and due to weather conditions the quality of the driveway wasn't great. George promised to fix it and he did. We waited till the summer months to schedule the repair/resurface work. The driveway is looking really good now. I would recommend this company. read more

They did a good job (just look at the photos I uploaded). The work was done in March, and two months later I'm still very happy with the new driveway surface. At least one neighbor has admitted envy more than once. It took well over a month after the job was done to get any type of documentation, with repeated requests, but I finally got a receipt (now I can get reimbursed half from the other home owner). The original work was rescheduled last minute due to rain even though I was promised weather would not cause delays. So, the quality of product is excellent while scheduling and administrative functions, in my case, fall short of perfect. I still give them four out of five stars and offer my recommendation. Yelp keeps putting this review in the not recommended category. I must assume the reason is it's the only review I ever wrote here, but I was happy enough with the job to sign up and talk about it. read more

Due to damage to our driveway by Red Carpet Remodeling when shingles were delivered, Red Carpet contracted with Falls Church Paving to do the repair. Rather than cutting out the damaged area and applying hot asphalt, they applied a cold patch and then did a piss poor job tamping it down. They left two obvious patches without doing any tapering with crack filler and when it was pointed out to the paver he was extremely rude and refused to do any corrections. Fortunately we weren't paying them and I can assure every reader, I would never contract with company on my own. read more

I recently contracted with Falls Church Paving to replace our driveway. The owner and all of his staff was very responsive, helpful and nice throughout the whole process. The workers were very careful to not hurt my plants that lined the driveway which I really appreciated. Everyone was respectful of the COVID rules and wore their masks which made me feel very comfortable. And the driveway looked great! I highly recommend this company if you need any paving services. read more

George and the rest of his crew at Falls Church Paving did an outstanding job widening and repaving our asphalt driveway. This was not an easy job and included a large retaining wall. The wall itself was built out of pressure-treated lumber and is 30 or so feet long and 3 feet tall at it's tallest. The wall and the driveway are straight and true and look great! George went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with our driveway! That included returning after the project was complete to dig out a drainage ditch adjacent to the driveway that had silted up over the years. I would recommend Falls Church Paving to anyone looking for driveway work. read more

Took a month to return call. Came out and gave a high estimate. I selected them based on reviews I had read. They did the job right away. I let the sealer dry and them called George and asked him to look at the work. He said he would be out the next week. It's been a month - no George. My issues include poor coverage and poor crack filling. read more

Probably the best review is if someone tried your service once and then uses it again. Falls Church Paving did two jobs for me. The first job was resurfacing a driveway and resolving a run-off problem. That went very well. The second job, at another property, was adding a parking pad off an existing driveway. I was concerned that it would look "added on". Not only did it look as if it had been designed that way originally but the entrance was far more gracious than it had been. Falls Church Paving came when they said they would, they did what they promised, and the price was very fair. J. Rhodes read more

Repeated phone calls/messages left in 2014 NEVER returned.

I was looking for a company to repave our asphalt driveway and had George bid on it. He followed up and was very polite. I had three other bids and George beat them all. His son brought a crew in during the spring and did a very professional job. In the fall he stopped back and offered to seal the driveway with a petroleum based sealer. I accepted and the driveway not only is now sound but protected for 4 to 5 years. All the work was done to my satisfaction. George is willing to negotiate to earn your business. read more

Wanted to get an asphalt driveway and a concrete apron. Had to flatten a slope and work around a sidewalk. They sent out an estimator a few days after contact. Was quoted at $6,000. However, George (the owner) came out a week later and quoted me at $7,000. They came out the next day to dig out the slope. Unfortunately, there was a delay but they were able to come back Monday (3 days later) and finished the job. The work was done incredibly well. In the end, you pay for quality and this company really knows what they're doing. The only bumps were not having it done sooner and the price increase. But, otherwise, I would recommend them if you wanted something done right. read more

Had my driveway asphalted by Falls Church Paving and I'm very happy with the result. They came on time and were great to come back out to fill in around my fence posts when I called them. Very much appreciated the customer service from these guys. Several neighbors have asked who did the work because it looks so nice. read more

Had my driveway leveled and re paved by them. Neat, careful job. Fair price as well. The owner George Small gave the estimate, and along with his son, was on hand to supervise. Nice to see a successful family business. My concerns were addressed professionally. I'm very satisfied with the outcome, and intend to use them again when it needs to be sealed. read more

Well, I guess they are so busy and don't need any new business. I Called and spoke to someone at the company twice this week asking for someone to come and give us a quote-we needed someone to come relatively soon--no one has called back. Not interested in trying again. I had to give them one star, but wanted to give none read more

My neighbor and I used this company and had nothing but problems. We took at the grassy medium that separated our driveways and put in pavers instead. They knew we were going to do this and agreed to come back and add additional tar so that it butted up to the pavers. Repeated calls went unanswered. Then, we had plant growth in our driveway creating mounds in it. After more repeated calls to the office and the owner, they finally came out. The owner was very remorseful and offered to fix the issue, bring more tar to butt up against the pavers and said for our trouble, he would give us a free sealing of our driveways. Again, despite repeated calls, he has not fulfilled his promise. I would never use this company again and if you decide to, I would recommend you proceed with extreme caution. read more

I called several company's to come out and give me estimates to repave my entire driveway and, also extend it a few feet in certain areas. I have a long, winding driveway and it was in desperate need of having the entire thing repaved, lots of cracks and, uneven pavement. George, the owner came out and, gave me a very fair estimate and seemed very knowledgeable to get the best outcome - complete opposite of other company's. His crew came out and, his son oversaw the project. He made sure everything was done perfectly. The driveway is smooth and, extended in the areas I wanted and, they even extended in other areas where it looks amazing (without charging me). As a result, I'm considering them now for sealer as well. I would highly recommend them! read more

Got three bids to repave my driveway. Falls Church Paving and one other were very competitive. Chose Falls Church Paving because 1) they're local and 2) they did my neighbor's driveway and it looked (and continues to look) great. They did a fantastic job. The estimator - Sam - was friendly and responsive. The paving was done in a very timely fashion. Due to an internal miscommunication, there was a problem in how much was paved, but after talking with the owner, George, he promised to make it right. And yes, he did. They cut out the area that was erroneously paved and the driveway looks great. read more

They don't take care of you so don't waste your time on this company. I've called them over and over regarding a dent left on an area of patch they did on my driveway. Most of the time it is the operator who will only take message taking your call. After you keep calling them and finally George returned the call, he said he'd come to fix it. Then THAT"s IT. They never showed up. It's been over a year and the dent their job left is still not fixed. read more
